El Tamarindo Georgia Ave. Nw

My favorite place in DC for pupusas! I sampled their vegan menu during DC Veg Restaurant Week and was impressed by the innovative options available for vegans! I had vegan pupusas with cashew cheese, palm hearts ceviche, and jackfruit empanadas. I really hope they add these to their regular menu soon! The staff was also very friendly and welcoming. This was my first time dining in instead of ordering for delivery, and I absolutely loved the ambiance—it's beautiful!

We enjoyed Mother's Day brunch during DC Vegetarian Week and were absolutely in love with the food and drinks. Sitting outside in their parking lot with the heaters on was a wonderful bonus. Everything, from the vegetarian dishes to the chicken options, was perfect! We can't wait to dine here again soon.

The best pupusas I've ever had—and they still are! While living in DC, I visited El Tamarindo more than any other restaurant. The pupusas are fantastic, and the ambiance is lovely.

A taste of my childhood in every bite . Food is divine, really made with love and care. The staff goes above and beyond to satisfy appetite! Very clean facilities, this place felt like home. Thank you for being open when I needed hot food, coffee and a friendly face! Highly recommended to anyone. Vegans, see-food eaters! You can't go wrong. Stop in for coffee too.
